Morning Score previews a Resurgent Republic report on some warning signs for President Obama in four 2012 swing states:

Independents, Hispanics and other swing voters may be running out of patience with President Barack Obama and the pace of economic recovery, according to a new set of data collected in focus groups by the GOP polling outfit Resurgent Republic. In four battleground focus groups held last month, Resurgent Republic found that voters “were unanimous in their overwhelmingly negative descriptions of the economy, and unlike our focus groups a year ago, these voters could not see an end to the nation’s economic decline,” according a memo from former RNC Chairman Ed Gillespie and pollsters Whit Ayres and Leslie Sanchez. But voters differ on who to blame for the weak economy: Independents “did not hold President Obama primarily responsible,” the memo states, while “Hispanic voters were more likely to say President Obama made the economy worse, joining Republicans and Tea Party voters.”

It’s not just the economy where the president has to contend with deep and growing skepticism from some important voting blocs. Participants in the Resurgent Republic study generally agreed that Obama “has made the national debt worse” and were unsympathetic to arguments for raising the debt ceiling. And while the “intensity” of voters’ focus on the health care law has lessened, the perception that the Affordable Care Act is “complicated and bureaucratic” remains. The Resurgent Republic data was gathered from focus groups in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida and Colorado.
